"Okay, let's drive over there and use a hoe to dig the stream a little deeper, and then I'll let some water out from the space. Then Canniang, you drive the carriage back to find everyone, and then bring them here. I'll stay here, Set up a stove to cook. If we don’t say anything else, the meals for Bai Yan and the Zhou family’s guards must be cooked.”
"good!"
There is a carriage, which is much faster than Wang Can walking.
When the two arrived, the sun was already rising high and the air was starting to get hot.
Li Yuan tied the horse aside, took out two large bamboo hats from the space, and handed one of them to Wang Can.
After she put on the hat, he took out a hoe and handed it to her.
Wang Can was always a good worker no matter in his previous life or in this life.
After Li Yuan entered the book, starting from April, she would work in the fields under the scorching sun from time to time, so digging a hole was very simple for her.
The two walked a few meters up the stream, found a slightly sloped spot, and started.
After about a quarter of an hour, Li Yuan saw that the depth of the puddle was acceptable, but the water came up faster than she expected, so she said to Wang Can: "Can Niang, you go back and bring people here first, otherwise they can't find us, so we should worry Yes. When everyone comes over, you ask them to clear out the bamboo forest, and we can rest there during the day."
The bamboo forest was large enough, but not dense, and could accommodate more than 800 people.
There are just a lot of insects and snakes in the jungle. Fortunately, when we learned that we were leaving a few months ago, every household prepared some herbs to prevent insects and snakes.
In addition, the medicinal materials prepared by Li Yuan also contained a lot of realgar powder, so she was not worried.
Wang Can threw the hoe aside, washed himself in the turbid water in the pit, then picked up the small stream above the pit with both hands, washed his face, and then nodded and walked back.
"Sister, I think the water flow is okay. Stop working now and prepare the food. When everyone arrives, let them dig. When cooking, they don't have to use the water here. They can use it first. I brought it myself. When it is ready, there will still be several hours left for them to come here to get water."
"OK!"
Li Yuan said, waving to her, and after she left, she found a few stones and started building a stove in the shade of the trees around the stream.
After Wang Can returned, it was not until the end of Chen that everyone arrived at the bamboo forest one after another.
Bai Yan, Zhou Zi and others, after scanning around, asked Wang Can: "Ms. Wang, where does the stream go? Is Mrs. Li there alone now?"
Li Qinghua, who had already gotten off the carriage, also heard Bai Yan's voice. He immediately recruited a few people who were older but could still do some work, such as Old Man Li, and said, "Everyone, bring your hoes and shovels and follow me." Let’s go dig the water in the stream deep together. The water we have brought out seems to be a lot right now, but who knows what the situation is like outside. If you can’t use it, try not to use it, so as not to have no place to get water due to lack of water in the future, and you will die of thirst later.”
"good!"
As soon as Li Yuan finished cooking, she saw Bai Yan and the others coming over.
Not far behind them, except for Li Qinghua, were her father and the others who were older but still in good spirits.
Li Yuan waved to Bai Yan and the others: "You are here just in time. I have prepared the meal. You should eat quickly and go to rest."
Before Bai Yan and the others came over, they could smell the aroma of rice from a distance, which made their hungry stomachs even hungrier.
Li Yuan didn't make porridge, she made rice noodles and pancakes.
Because she didn't know how much Zhou Zi and others would eat, she made the meal based on the appetite of ten adult men.
Afraid of not being enough, she also took out the pancakes and rice noodles from the space that she had prepared and stored in the cellar of the space.
The amount she took out was also for ten people, but she always added spiritual spring water when she made it before.
What she was thinking in her mind was that it wasn't troublesome enough that she still had to cook when she and the others came over.
Since she arrived here so long before everyone else, she might as well do it all.
There were six of them, Bai Yan and Zhou Zi, plus her and Wang Can, there were eight.
Over at the old house, there are two cousins and grandma, a total of twelve people.
These twenty people should be enough.
But she never expected that he would come with a few old men and Li Qinghua.
Since it was her father, she would definitely shout.
However, there is no reason to call only one person when calling someone.
After thinking about it, she said to Li Qinghua and the others: "Master, Uncle Hua, you are here just in time. Come and eat quickly. I have done a lot."
Nowadays, food is a precious thing. How dare Li Qinghua and others eat Li Yuan's rations.
Except for Old Man Li, everyone else waved their hands quickly.
"No, no, Yuan Niang, you can eat it yourself. We will dig out the puddles and then go back. We have prepared food at home, so we will have enough to eat when we get back. Besides, we are not very hungry now."
Bai Yan, Zhou Zi and others were not polite. When they came, they either brought rations or gave Li Yuan money.
So when they heard Li Yuan shouting, they took the initiative to surround him.
Li Yuan had already taken out a basket of bowls and chopsticks from the space. Seeing that except for her father, the other elderly people including Li Qinghua refused, so she scooped up a bowl of rice noodles by herself, then took two pancakes and a pair of chopsticks. Passed it to Li Qinghua who had already passed by her.
Li Qinghua still wanted to refuse, but when he looked back, he saw that Li Yuan's big pot was full of rice noodles, and the big jar next to it was also full of rice noodles.
There was also a basket filled with pancakes, and it looked like there were many of them, both young and old.
Everyone knows that Li Yuan's carriage is just her and Wang Can, so there is no need to cook so much food.
Even if Bai Yan, Zhou Zi and others are added, there is no need for this.
Now that she is doing so much, I think she really wants to honor them.
Thinking of this, the eyes of Li Qinghua and others looking at Li Yuan became softer and softer.
The Li family is so lucky to have this daughter!
People are kind and filial.
I believe that apart from her, there is no other married woman in the world who can take care of the whole clan in this situation.
Generally speaking, being able to take care of her brothers and grandparents is considered very good.
When several old men had bowls of rice noodles in their hands, sighing and eating, Wang Can also came over with Mrs. Wang and others.
"sister!"
Li Yuan heard Wang Can's voice and looked up in the direction of the bamboo forest.
When he saw her breasts and her eldest and second brothers, he took the opportunity to take out a lot of rice noodles from the space.
She was very glad that she did not scoop out all the rice noodles in the jar or pot, fearing that there would not be enough to eat. Instead, she scooped half a spoon here and half a spoon there.
There was some spiritual spring water mixed in with the other, so even Bai Yan, Zhou Zi and others who were just concentrating on eating didn't notice anything wrong.
Wang Can came to Li Yuan's side and saw a large iron pot, a large jar and pancakes in a basket. He knew that Li Yuan had taken out a lot of food from the space.
I don’t know if the food was mixed with spiritual spring water, but it was too fragrant in this jungle. When everyone was immersed in eating, there was a sudden sound of running above the stream.
